Team of Champions

CHARMAYNE JAMES
Charmayne James, 11-time world champion barrel racer, is a living legend. She was the first Million Dollar Cowgirl, winner of the most professional barrel racing championships, and holds the records for the most consecutive NFR qualifications at 19. Charmayne conducts barrel racing clinics that are booked years in advance, and she’s in demand as a speaker/clinician at horse expos and events worldwide. She’s been featured in every major horse publication, as well as in Sports Illustrated, People Magazine, USA Today and others, and has appeared on “Good Morning America,” the CBS “Morning Show,” ABC “Wide World of Sports,” and other major programs.

James won her first world title at the age of 14 aboard her phenomenal gelding Gills Bay Boy, better known as Scamper. James and Scamper won 10 consecutive world titles from 1984 – 1993, and James won another world title in 2002 aboard Cruiser. History was made in 2017 as the first ever barrel racers from the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association (WPRA) were inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame. Scamper was inducted in 1996 and the first and only barrel horse until 2017.

“I feel my new products are the best produced and manufactured than ever before. This partnership definitely takes the C11 line of products to the next level.” – Charmayne

Marlene grew up in eastern Colorado wanting to be a cowgirl. She set goals early in her life and set out to accomplish each with a vengeance.

“Since the beginning of my career I have only endorsed specifically designed and selected products that are strictly developed to protect, enhance, and promote horse soundness, comfort and performance.” – Marlene

Marlene’s saddles are designed to her specifications of quality, fit, and benefits to the rider. Marlene’s Special Effx Saddle System replaces the traditional rigid, solid wood saddle tree with her own custom made Special Effx Saddle Tree that form fits to each horse’s back, greatly improving the fit and allowing her saddles to fit a wider range of horses. It is like a custom fitted saddle for each horse that you ride!

“We usually ride between six to 12 new horses every month and I have not found one yet that this saddle did not fit. When it comes to truly fitting and allowing each horse to move without resistance, this is the one. Believe me, if it was not the best fitting saddle available I would not ride it!” states Marlene

Molly Powell is a million dollar cowgirl and 10-time National Finals Rodeo qualifier.

“I only put my name on the products I use – the ones that I trust to help me win. Reinsman – that’s my choice.” – Molly Powell

“Confidence is everything when you are purchasing a saddle. Will it fit my horse? Can I ride it? Is it worth the money? I have worked very hard to ensure that these three questions are answered with a yes, because they are the very same things that I ask myself when picking out a new saddle! Whether you choose my wooden tree saddle, popular for its super comfortable seat, or my favorite saddle the Freedom Fit – the most versatile fitting saddle I have ever seen, your investment means a lot to me and I am confident that you will be happy riding my signature saddles.” – Molly Powell

Reinsman has worked with champion barrel racer and clinician Sharon Camarillo for many years, and we are so pleased to announce her line of Team Camarillo barrel saddles she’s designed with her daughter Storme Camarillo. Storme and Sharon Camarillo conduct better Barrel Racing clinics worldwide.

Sharon Camarillo is a Multi-National Finals Rodeo Qualifier, National Cowboy Hall of Fame Inductee, and National Cowgirl Hall of Fame Inductee.

Team Camarillo barrel saddles feature:
• A secure seat to stay properly balanced through a powerful turn
• The highest quality saddle in the lightest weight possible
• Narrow seat twist and wide swells to ride effectively
• Fenders are set to help keep the rider’s legs from getting behind and falling forward during a run

Sharon Camarillo’s acclaimed workshops, Performance Horsemanship for Better Barrel Racing, have influenced students all over the world to enjoy the process of developing their equine partner, regardless of the discipline, to their personal potential. Her ability to evaluate, inspire and motivate has made Sharon Camarillo’s instructional books and DVDs among the best sellers in the industry.

Sharon is a Multi-National Finals Rodeo qualifier, and one of only a few women to have been inducted into both the National Cowboy Hall of Fame and the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame. As an international equine clinician and industry advocate Sharon’s career has encompassed many facets of the equestrian world and western lifestyle.

At just 38 years old, Clay Tryan has been billed as one of the three best headers to play the game. In 14 trips to the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, the cowboy from Billings, Mont., has won three world championships, broken several earnings and arena records, and was the ERA Champion.

“To become the PRCA World Champion as a header, you need two things:
• Your saddle to fit your horse exactly
• Make sure your saddle will allow you and your horse to perform at the maximum level

This is why I am teamed up with Reinsman. Reinsman is determined to provide the best saddles for fit, function and quality all the time.” – Clay

Beers won his world championship in 1984 while roping with header Dee Pickett who was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in 2003. Beers is a 23-time NFR qualifier in team roping (1980-95, 1997-98, 2000-03, 2007). He also qualified for the NFR in tie-down roping in 1981, 1983 and 1985 and for the Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping in 1992. Beers was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in 2017.

Reinsman crafts his signature line of bits developed for roping and speed horses.

More than just a clinician who talks about horsemanship, Van is a true horseman whose clinic and seminar presentations are born out of real-world experience working with and learning from horses. Van started riding horses when he was only four years old and launched his career as a trainer at 12 when the wife of world-renowned saddle maker Billy Cook hired him to train her horse. He spent much of his youth in the saddle, working cattle at ranches around his Texas home. At the same time Van was honing his skills as a trainer and competitor, taking both his own and his clients’ horses into the show ring and the rodeo arena. Van and the horses he’s trained have excelled in show and rodeo events like ranch horse versatility (his specialty), western pleasure, trail classes, calf roping, team roping, and steer wrestling.

“Whether I’m starting a young horse, tuning a performance horse or helping a horse overcome an issue, my first choice of bit is my smooth-mouth offset d-ring snaffle by Reinsman. With this bit, there’s no chance of ever pinching a horse’s cheeks because they are made with a unique brass bushing between the bit mount and the stainless steel d-rings.” – Van
